Recipe FAQ
- Almond Milk: start with 1 1/4 cup and add more depending upon how you like the consistency of your smoothies. You can really use any kind of dairy-free milk here – coconut milk can be used to if you want things extra thick and creamy. Learn how to make your own almond milk here!
- Spinach: feel free to use as much of that spinach as you want!
- Frozen Banana – check out this post on How to Freeze Bananas
- Pineapple: without the pineapple this smoothie is not very sweet (just warning you). It definitely tastes like avocado (duh, its an avocado smoothie). So if you taste it and it just isn’t doing it for you or it wasn’t what you expected, I would toss in some pineapple! So good either way, in my opinion!
- Ice: if you don’t have frozen fruit on hand, then I would also recommend adding in a couple ice cubes when blending!

Creamy Avocado Smoothie – a smooth and delicious smoothie that is full of amazing and healthy ingredients – leaves you full and satisfied!
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½–1 avocado (use frozen, if desired)
- 1/2 large frozen banana, cut into chunks
- 1 serving collagen peptides
- 1 tablespoon ground flax meal
- 1 generous handful of raw spinach, anywhere from 1/2 cup to a full cup
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- tiny pinch of kosher salt
- (optional) 1/2 cup frozen pineapple
Instructions
- Combine ingredients in high-speed blender.
- Blend on high until fully combined, about 1-2 minutes, scraping down sides if necessary.

Notes
- Consistency: option to use more almond milk to thin it out or toss in ice if you are using fresh (not frozen) ingredients to thicken it up a bit.
- Sweetness: we really love adding a touch of sweetness by tossing in some pineapple!
- Chill: If you didn’t use frozen avocados, then you will want to place in the fridge to allow it to cool down – drinking it cold is better.
